Chapter 32: Shopping Frenzy
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
A geneticist was an expert on the field of mythological genes!
And as for Feng Lin, he came from the past Earth Era. His understanding of the myths and legends of the old world was undoubtedly extremely rich. No humans in the Interstellar Era would be able to surpass him with regards to this point!
He was the number one expert on the field of myths and legends.
Feng Lin had absolute confidence in himself.
Right now, the only thing he was lacking was the knowledge of genomics, but this isn’t a huge problem.
Who told him to have the genetic equation?
Comparing his genetic equation to a geneticist that had to slowly experiment to gain data about a gene, Feng Lin could directly see the complete set of data about a gene. Genes held no secrets for him.
By turning genetic information into data, this was an extreme innate ability. If he used it to dive into gene research theory, he would undoubtedly be able to make great strides in the field.
A lack of genetic knowledge?
This was too simple, he simply had to accumulate them.
As for people who lack knowledge about myths and legends, this referred to everyone in the Interstellar Era. This was something they couldn’t learn even if they wanted to learn. It was a pathway that had long since been severed by the river of time.
One couldn’t help but say that the geneticist occupation was simply a perfect match for Feng Lin.
Even Feng Lin thought so himself. His expression remained unchanged as he hid his excitement in his heart and continued to listen patiently.
“Geneticists research genetic theory, and their understanding of potion of life is far above the common crowd, making them capable of greatly boosting the medicinal effect of the potion. For any cultivation resources that are modulated by a geneticist, the value of that cultivation resource will definitely soar up by more than ten times or sometimes even a hundred times. A good example is this potion of life that resembles the starry space. A price of 10,000 star coins for it is already considered a bargain…”
Feng Lin was startled for a moment before the feeling of joy enveloped him.
A geneticist could actually earn money so easily. Wasn’t this his dream job?
His poor family background had restricted his development. He had always lacked nutrient fluids and had insufficient cultivation resources. All of these required star coins.
If he could become a geneticist, that would be…
Feng Lin suddenly had a vision of endless star coins dazzling before his eyes. Also, these geneticists could also modulate and create nutrient medicine. They could be completely self-sufficient.
At this moment, his heart was completely moved.
However, the geneticist occupation was a very high-end occupation that had a high entry barrier. Right now, he could only look up and hope for it. He had to consider other things first.
It was best to settle the more pressing things before him first.
Feng Lin instantly had an idea, and he glanced at the beautiful virtual sales assistant. As they interacted, he discovered that this girl was extremely intelligent and had a good understanding of cultivation resources. He could seek her opinion.
However, he wouldn’t be so foolish as to tell his complete situation to a stranger. He changed his way of speaking, “I have a friend who suddenly erupts forth with potential due to the imminent arrival of the college examination. However, he has a deficiency of nutrients in his body, and the process of his potential eruption had caused him to overdraft his life force. Other than buying potions of life, is there anything else he should buy?”
The virtual sales assistant thought about it and seriously replied, “What is his cultivation level?”
“Just a cultivation apprentice,” Feng Lin calmly answered, as though he wasn’t speaking about himself.
“In that case, potions of life should be sufficient.” the virtual sales assistant didn’t even need to think more and directly replied.
“Why do you say that?” Feng Lin asked curiously.
“Potions of life are one of the few cultivation resources that can be artificially synthesized. It has good quality and affordable price that are really suitable for cultivation apprentices! If your friend is an interstellar cultivator, I might have suggested him to buy interstellar monster’s flesh, God’s Blood…etc, all these items of great nutritional value. But to cultivation apprentices, their vitality stats are too weak as their bodies have not been fully transformed. They wouldn’t be able to digest such items of great nutritional value even if they consumed it. Not only would it be extremely wasteful, but it might even cause harm to their body!” the virtual sales assistant explained clearly and finally convinced Feng Lin
“Alright, let’s buy all the potions of life then!” Feng Lin instantly made a decision. He pointed to the potions of life that were manually-synthesized and the initial-graded ones. “Give me 10 bottles of the manually-synthesized ones and 30 bottles for the initial-grade ones.”
However, the virtual sales assistant suggested, “If it’s just to make up for the deficiency in nutrients, there’s no need to spend so much on these. For manually-synthesized potions of life, their price is double compared to the lowest-grade, but their medicinal effect is only a little stronger. For the same amount of coins, you might as well purchase another twenty bottles of the initial-grade potion of life.”
With regards to her good intentions, Feng Lin nodded in appreciation. However, he had already decided in his heart.
The reason why he wanted to buy the second-type potion of life was that he wanted to taste the disparity of the medicinal effects between the two types to further deepen his understanding.
“Don’t worry, just get me what I want.” Feng Lin didn’t explain further.
The virtual sales assistant shook her head, but she could only follow his orders.
But clearly, she had underestimated Feng Lin’s shopping frenzy.
Feng Lin’s eyes swept the surroundings and landed on the starry space-like potion of life. He pointed to that, “And that too as well.”
“This is a potion of life of the starry skies series that cost 10,000 star coins for a single bottle!” The virtual sales assistant exclaimed in shock. “There’s no need for you to spend so much, this is simply…”
“Don’t need to say anything more.” Feng Lin stretched out his hands to prevent her from continuing to speak. He calmly added, “I know my boundaries.”
From his tone, the virtual sales assistant could sense an unwavering decisiveness. She opened and closed her mouth a few times, but she didn’t continue to say anything. Feng Lin just spent 60,000 star coins just like this, to purchase 41 bottles of the potion of life.
He easily carried the package and walked out of the shop.
“Is there anything you want to buy next?” The virtual sales assistant asked again.
Feng Lin thought about it, but he had no idea for now.
Right now, he only had 40,000 star coins left. He would feel that it was such a waste if he didn’t manage to spend them. However, the main point was what should he spend on?
This Thousand Gold Building was so large; there should be something that was worth it for him to buy.
In any case, the money was considered ill-gotten wealth. He might as well spend it all today.
Next, Feng Lin toured the building together with the virtual sales assistant. The products sold here were simply innumerable in the manner that it would cause the shopper to actually feel a sense of confusion, not knowing what to buy. There were simply too many good stuff here.
The virtual assistant patiently accompanied him. Such a large-spending customer was considered a good source of income to the Thousand Gold Building. The A.I. adjusted her behavior in order to provide the best shopping experience and assistance to Feng Lin.
“Respected customers, please take note. Tonight at 9 p.m., a new online auction will start. For customers who are keen on this, you can first browse over the information…” A female voice rang out in all corners of the Thousand Gold Building.
“Online auction?” Feng Lin’s heart stirred. He used his identity microchip to connect to the wireless network. An instant later, information about various kinds of rare and valuable treasures of the auction appeared before his eyes. Most of the treasures displayed had a value that ranged from a 100.000 star coins to a million star coins.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed as his gaze landed on a black metallic microchip that exuded a sense of science and technology.
The introduction information of this product was written in blazing red, and there were only three words on it.
“Genetic researcher’s research notes!”
